Cutie Peyton

Handsome Isaac

Super woman showed up with her cape ha ha

Kenzie with her Papa.  We stopped to see her and have a concrete mixer.  She was the cashier and she knew our order without us saying it.  This girl knows us pretty well.  She got it perfect.

Thank you Kimmy for Mocha's great haircut.  Love it...so cute!

Was pretty excited today because Kimmy came to visit.  She has had a cold and hasn't been able to come.  We had a nice time visiting and she wanted to groom Mocha for me which was a huge blessing.  Mocha looks so cute and nails are trimmed.  No words can thank you enough Kimmy.  I appreciate you so much.  I called Vikki as I saw on Facebook that Misty was engaged.  I didn't see a comment from Vikki on there so wanted to make sure she knew.  She was sleeping so I told Peyton to go tell her and Peyton said, I will tell her when she wakes up.  I told her to take the phone in so I could tell her and then she said, I have to go to the bathroom first.  I told her not to take the phone in the bathroom and that I would call mommy later.  A few minutes later, Vikki called me.  She got ready and took her car in for them to fix the mistakes they made on it at Muffler Man.  Kimmy had to leave at 12:30 to get Jared and take him to his MRI for his knee.  I had to meet best friend Vikki at Logan's at 1:00, but at least we had a half of day.  Vikki came and got to spend a little time.  Melissa is getting ready to go to Chicago so figured she would  be to busy to come.  Vikki and I ordered grilled salmon, mac and cheese, broccoli and rolls.  Such good food.  We had a really good visit catching up.  Afterwards we went to the Family Book Store to shop.  Bought some books that were on sale and a movie.  When I got home I got ready and went to Delta to meet Vikki, Peyton and Isaac to swim.  We had so much fun and the water was so nice.  They gave me a dollar off because I was with Vikki and she had a membership.  Came home and Bill and I went up to visit Carol in the hospital.  She said she will probably come home tomorrow.  She was having trouble breathing.  Debbie when we got there but left right away.  Before we left, Tom came up.  Carol was on oxygen but she talked good and looked good.  She is giving up smoking so we are praying for her.  She has already gone 3 days.  Please keep her in prayer.

Lots of fresh Kale

This is the sucker I picked up for our care group to give Pastor Ken for his 50th birthday.

Got up at 6:15 a.m. and made homemade soup.  Picked kale and have it in the dehydrator.  Yummy for soup and very good for us too.  Bill went with Vikki to take her car in to get fixed.  I ran off some pictures to take Aunt Vikki tomorrow when I meet her for lunch.  Went to Kid's Care group.  Had 8 kiddos.  Joan had a beautiful big decorated cookie waiting for me on the counter.  When my kids went to Music class with Emily, I enjoyed my cookie.  Yum.  It was the best.  Good thing I walked a lot of stairs when I ran off pictures today.  Aunt Debbie called and said Aunt Carol is in the hospital and will be in until Fri or Sat.  She was having trouble breathing.

Hailey playing volleyball at St. Pete's.  She did a great job serving and making points for her team.

Loved watching her play

Hailey in action!

Took this picture after the game!

Took this of Melissa in front of her old school

Got the rooms upstairs cleaned for when the Royce kiddos come stay.  I had stuff on the beds that I have been going through.  Went to get gift cards at Krogers because they are 4x fuel points.  I went to meet Kenzie in the parking lot at Planet Fitness and my car wouldn't start.  I had jumper cables so Kenzie and I were going to jump it.  Kenzie knew how to hook them up.  Just as we were going to a guy came by an offered to help.  My car started right away, but I didn't turn the radio off so it said I needed a code entered when I got in.  I read up on it when I got home and saw that I should have turned the radio off before jumping it.  I had tried to push radio stations and that registered as numbers for the code and now it said code error.  Saw where there was supposed to be a card with a code # on it somewhere.  Looked and found it.  Tried entering it but it wouldn't let me.  I gave up, and headed to Hailey's volleyball game at St. Petes.  Nice to have the kids see where their mommy had gone to school.  Hailey did a great job serving today.  She made lots of points for her team.  When we left someone yelled my name so I turned around.  She asked me if I knew who she was and I told her yes, Nancy.  It was Melissa's friend at St. Pete's mom.  She knew me right when I walked in she said.  I walked in late.  Nice to see her.  Her granddaughter was playing.  I took a picture of Melissa under the sign of her old school. She went from Kindergarten to 2nd grade there.  After I got home, Denise and Paul Nelson came over and we went to His Restoration to show them around.  Ann was there so they got to meet her and they were having a prayer meeting so Bev Wightman was there also.  After that we went to Olive Garden to eat.  We had such a nice visit with this amazing couple.

9/20/15

Got up and went to church.  Worship was amazing this morning.  Taught Sunday School and loved it. Another great group of kiddos.  Ate left over pizza for lunch.  Then laid down for a half hour.  Got up and we were going to go meet Bill and Sabrina for ice cream when we heard a knock at the door.  It was Bruce, Melissa and kids bringing their camper to store for winter.  Poor max got stung by a bee while he was here.  We visited with them for a while, then headed to meet Bill and Sabrina at their house so we could pick up our motorcycle camper.  Went to Mooney's and we all got ice cream cones except Bill got a hot fudge sundae.  Bill and Sabrina had gotten us a $25 gift certificate to Mooney's for using our camper and we had told them we didn't need anything.  So we decided to treat them with it so we could all enjoy it.  We had so much fun and the ice cream was yummy.  Came home and moved our furniture around to make more room for our care group.  Then we did our lesson and watched a movie about Abraham Lincoln.

Now they are doing the ones on the wall.  Moose is Mooze

This had words on it to and Jack loved spinning it.

They found a friend

Max at Pizza Sams

Waiting for their Pizza

Yum, here it is.  The boys don't even like pizza much.  Wish we would have known that.  They each ate one piece.  Max ate  his very slowly.

Then we headed to the fridge

Papa, Jack and Max on the Tridge

The boys were way faster than us.

Mud volleyball game going on.  YUK...they were almost up to their knees in mud.  The one on the right had a pond on one end.  These kids were muddy.

Max

Jack

Jack

They sure had fun on the playground.

Yay they made it!

There was going to be a wedding outside.  I was praying the wind would stop for it.  The guy in the background is dressed for the wedding.  Kind of weird.

Go Max Go

The boys were waiting for us when we ended.

Melissa looked beautiful when we dropped the boys off at home, so I took a picture

This is how Evan came up to give me a hug goodbye...Spiderman!

We were excited we would be able to swim this morning so we got up early, went to Tim Hortons, came back and went to the pool.  Swam for a long time and then left to go through the snack shack.  Max was sweet and wanted to get something for each one in his family.  Bill got some big dice that are quieter to roll.  We went up and changed, packed and headed to the Indian Museum.  Then we left there and went to the Farmer's Market but it was closing.  We went to Pizza Sam's and ate and then walked the Tridge and took them to the park.  We also stopped at an army surplus shop.  We had so much fun.  After we dropped the boys off, we came home and unpacked.  I went to Vikki's to pick up Mocha.  Came home and watched a movie and had popcorn.
